Notification Center and Control Center are both useful pieces of the iOS operating system, unfortunately, their activation methods can get in the way when you're using full-screen applications, like games.

Here to help make this more convenient is a new free jailbreak tweak called Central Hider by iOS developer Brave Heart. This is an Activator-based jailbreak tweak that lets you enable or disable Notification Center and/or Control Center on demand so that you can keep them out of your way when you're in full-screen applications.

The tweak adds a preferences pane to the Settings application where you can configure the tweak to your liking:

Here, you can enable or disable Notification Center or Control Center on demand by way of toggle switches, or you can configure Activator actions so that you won't have to visit the Settings application every time that you want to toggle either one on or off.

CentralHider is available for free right now in Cydia's BigBoss repository if you want to give it a try. iOS 7 is required for the installation.
